Greater Philadelphia Iced Tea Challenge

Pour Tea. Spread Hope.

Last summer, Rebecca Wetzel received the unsettling news that some members of her family carry a gene genetically linked to ALS. As a mother of two young daughters, and already having lost her grandfather and father to ALS, Rebecca was determined to take action.

When her daughters said they wanted to "help scientists make medicine for ALS" an idea was born: the Iced Tea Challenge. What an ideal way, Rebecca thought, to mobilize and engage the nation's youth in the fight against this devastating disease.

Thanks to Rebecca and her enterprising daughters, the first-ever Iced Tea Challenge is set to kick off on May 6th and continue until the end of the month.

We need to do everything we can to find a treatment and a cure. Together, let's make a difference - one dollar at a time!

Our mission is to lead the fight to treat and cure ALS through global research and nationwide advocacy while also empowering people with Lou Gehrig's Disease and their families to live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care and support.
